— Empowering Women —

Advocacy

A key tenet of Zonta International's work — promoting legislative awareness, equal
rights, and meaningful change.

Why We Advocate

Voices raised. Worlds reshaped.

Advocacy is central to Zonta International’s mission to empower women. We act in accordance with the Objects of Zonta International to improve the status of women and to promote legislative awareness, advocacy and equal rights.

From local statehouse hearings to international UN forums, Zonta International works alongside districts and clubs across the world — equipping members with the tools, data and language to make change real. Below you’ll find the bulletins, toolkits and campaign resources that fuel our work in District 10.
